If Derrick James coaches AJ to being back on top. That’s coach of the decade. His stable will be insane.

@@leftturnclyde3398 Regardless, he won a gold medal. Just like fury getting gifted a decision vs McDermott when he lost nearly every round. Can’t have it both way. Bottom line is, he’s an Olympic gold medalist. Fury wasn’t even good enough to get into the Olympics. He’s two time heavyweight champion of the world. Same as fury but fury is only two time champion because he was caught juicing and regardless of what you think of his opponents, he’s still got the best resume in the division. This is just a fact.
Has the top 140, 147, 154 pounders and now has a heavyweight in there. Anthony Joshua's physique in a matter of weeks has already begun to display as more of a boxer than a bodybuilder. Man I can't wait to see his growth in 3-4 years with Derrick James.
Derrick James vs Sugar Hill would be a hell of a chess match.
I wanna see Aj do well 🙏 he seems to be himself more atm. I hope he continues in just enjoying his boxing. Forget the stress. Win or lose Aj has fought the best and wants to fight the best. Unlike some.
Wow Kugan at last a very fruitful interview and great questioning and answer's . I cannot wait to see what this trainer can add to AJ if any . I am a believer in fighting styles and in my opinion I believe styles make fighters not the other way round . I hear trainers say and not just Derrick James that they are not trying to get a fighter to change their style but give the fighter what they need and try and make them better.

Derrick James comes across classy, reflective & thoughtful in what he says, and I think this is because he’s literally all about the fighting. I sense an older brother/father figure element to him too- which is needed when it’s not a father/son corner.
Franklin could prove to be be a very hard night for AJ, depends how AJ is feeling after his recent losses.

losses are just part of the journey the best of the best lost fights! I'm not comparing Aj to Ali because there's levels to this lol BUTLeon Spinks beat Ali not only beat him destroyed him!!! Leon Spinks was the most inexperienced boxer ever to win the Heavyweight Title at the expense of Ali with just only seven pro fights!!!!! Did anyone stop calling Ali the greatest boxer! Aj lost to Ruiz who had a lot of fights and experience already and the best heavyweight boxer right now in Uysk which Tyson ducked by the way! At least Aj is taking risks and fighting the best unlike the coward Fury so I don't get the hate for Aj! I'm not Aj Fanboy by the way I'm just a fan of boxing in general. I just hate to see elite boxers ducking certain boxers because they're so scared of losing!!!

Derrick James done wonders with Spence n Charlo, he gonna instill that aggression AJ been needing
God bless Derrick James; after the win, AJ should avoid clouts and get back to working. I actually believe he can do it again....
So KD who looks after AJ had the contact number of a trainer he wanted for AJ. But he didn’t want to ‘hit him up’, he was using instagram and not even mentioning who he was. This explains a lot 😂

For all those that say AJ brought British boxing back to the big time, I agree to an extent. But while we're all Fury bashing atm, let's not forget the set of circumstances that allowed that to happen. Furys win in Germany against Wlad when he was 11 years unbeaten was one of the biggest heavyweight title wins ever. It's unfortunate that his mental health let him down but that put all the belts out there. A combination of Eddie Hearns charm, Sky's monster platform, and available belts that Fury won then enabled AJ to become a world champion. But if we don't remember the night in Germany that made all of this possible, it may never have been possible
Comeback season for AJ 👏👏👏

Let’s be honest here. AJ should be able to KO both Franklin then Whyte and lead to a wilder, fury or Joyce fight. He fails to do that, then it’s boxing career over.
